  • Marginal Formations of the Last Kara and Barents Ice Sheets in Northern European Russia
    Marginal formations of the last Kara and Barents ice sheets in northern European Russia VALERY I. ASTAKHOV, JOHN INGE SVENDSEN, ALEXEI MATIOUCHKOV, JAN MANGERUD, OLGA MASLENIKOVA AND JAN TVERANGER Astakhov, V. I., Svendsen, J. I., Matiouchkov, A., Mangerud, J., Maslenikova, O. & Tveranger, J. 1999 (March): Marginal formations of the last Kara and Barents ice sheets in northern European Russia. Boreas, Vol. 28, pp. 23–45. Oslo. ISSN 0300-9483. Glacial landforms in northern Russia, from the Timan Ridge in the west to the east of the Urals, have been mapped by aerial photographs and satellite images supported by field observations. An east–west trending belt of fresh hummock-and-lake glaciokarst landscapes has been traced to the north of 67 °N. The southern bound- ary of these landscapes is called the Markhida Line, which is interpreted as a nearly synchronous limit of the last ice sheet that affected this region. The hummocky landscapes are subdivided into three types according to the stage of postglacial modification: Markhida, Harbei and Halmer. The Halmer landscape on the Uralian piedmont in the east is the freshest, whereas the westernmost Markhida landscape is more eroded. The west– east gradient in morphology is considered to be a result of the time-transgressive melting of stagnant glacier ice and of the underlying permafrost. The pattern of ice-pushed ridges and other directional features reflects a dominant ice flow direction from the Kara Sea shelf. Traces of ice movement from the central Barents Sea are only discernible in the Pechora River left bank area west of 50°E.

Fig.1 shows the localities that have been investigated between 1995 and 2002 – river sections along the Severnaya Dvina and its tributaries, the Mezen River Basin, the coasts of the White Sea and the Barents Sea, as well as the Timan Ridge (KJÆR et al. 2006a).

Present deglaciation is increasing the number and size of 16 proglacial lakes around the world. This study provides a synthesis of knowledge on proglacial lake 17 character and behaviour and critically evaluates the importance of proglacial lakes from a geological 18 perspective. We show how ‘ice-marginal’ or ‘ice-contact’ lakes and other distal proglacial lakes can 19 be distinguished from each other by geomorphological, sedimentological, chemical and biological 20 characteristics. The key controls on proglacial lake geomorphology and sedimentology are outlined 21 and discussed. Proglacial lakes can exacerbate mountain glacier and ice sheet margin ablation via 22 mechanical and thermal stresses, but very large lakes can moderate summer air temperatures and 23 relatively retard summer ice ablation. Proglacial lakes interrupt meltwater flux and are very efficient 24 sediment traps. Hydrological routing and consequent geomorphological activity can be radically 25 modified by sudden drainage of proglacial lakes and resultant glacial lake outburst floods; 26 exceptionally large proglacial lake drainages affected global ocean circulation and global climate 27 during the Quaternary.

  • Age and Extent of the Barents and Kara Ice Sheets in Northern Russia
    Age and extent of the Barents and Kara ice sheets in Northern Russia JAN MANGERUD, JOHN INGE SVENDSEN AND VALERY I. ASTAKHOV Mangerud, J., Svendsen, J. I. & Astakhov, V. I. 1999 (March): Age and extent of the Barents and Kara ice sheets in Northern Russia. Boreas, Vol. 28, pp. 46–80. Oslo. ISSN 0300-9483. The youngest ice marginal zone between the White Sea and the Ural mountains is the W–E trending belt of moraines called the Varsh–Indiga–Markhida–Harbei–Halmer–Sopkay, here called the Markhida line. Glacial elements show that it was deposited by the Kara Ice Sheet, and in the west, by the Barents Ice Sheet. The Markhida moraine overlies Eemian marine sediments, and is therefore of Weichselian age. Distal to the mor- aine are Eemian marine sediments and three Palaeolithic sites with many C-14 dates in the range 16–37 ka not covered by till, proving that it represents the maximum ice sheet extension during the Weichselian. The Late Weichselian ice limit of M. G. Grosswald is about 400 km (near the Urals more than 700 km) too far south. Shorelines of ice dammed Lake Komi, probably dammed by the ice sheet ending at the Markhida line, predate 37 ka. We conclude that the Markhida line is of Middle/Early Weichselian age, implying that no ice sheet reached this part of Northern Russia during the Late Weichselian. This age is supported by a series of C-14 and OSL dates inside the Markhida line all of >45 ka. Two moraine loops protrude south of the Mark- hida line; the Laya–Adzva and Rogavaya moraines.

    MEDDELANDEN från STOCKHOLMS UNIVERSITETS INSTITUTION för GEOLOGI och GEOKEMI No. 335 On the Late Saalian glaciation (160 - 140 ka) – a climate modeling study Florence Colleoni A joint supervision Stockholm and Grenoble 2009 Department of Geology and Geochemistry LGGE - UMR 5183 CNRS Stockholm University S – 10691 Stockholm Université Joseph Fourier Sweden 54 rue Molière - BP 96 38402 St-Martin d’Hères Cedex France A dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Natural Sciences Department of Geology and Geochemistry LGGE - UMR 5183 CNRS Stockholm University S – 10691 Stockholm Université Joseph Fourier Sweden 54 rue Molière - BP 96 38402 St-Martin d’Hères Cedex France Abstract This thesis focuses on the glaciation of the Late Saalian period (160 -140 ka) over Eurasia. The Quaternary Environment of the Eurasian North (QUEEN) project determined that during this period, the Eurasian ice sheet was substantially larger than during the entire Weichselian cycle and especially than during that of the Last Glacial Maximum (21 ka, LGM). The Late Saalian astronomical forcing was different than during the LGM while greenhouse gas concentrations were similar. To understand how this ice sheet could have grown so large over Eurasia during the Late Saalian, we use an Atmospheric General Circulation Model (AGCM), an AGCM coupled to an oceanic mixed layer and a vegetation model to explore the influence of regional parameters, sea surface temperatures (SST) and orbital parameters on the surface mass balance (SMB) of the Late Saalian Eurasian ice sheet. At 140 ka, proglacial lakes, vegetation and simulated Late Saalian SST cool the Eurasian climate, which reduce the ablation along the southern ice sheet margins.
